10 Awesome TV Shows With One Awful Character

4. Vincent Chase - Entourage

HBO

Much like Piper in Orange is the New Black, Vinny Chase is by far the least compelling thing about his own show. While Ari, Eric, Turtle, and Drama are consistently entertaining presences, Vinny basically just feels like a generic cipher, a placeholder character around which all the drama and glamour takes place.

Vinny's blandness is made that much more blatant by the show's litany of cameos, from actual bonafide Hollywood stars who play as far more interesting than Adrian Grenier's wet lettuce of a movie star.

As absurdly enjoyable as the show is, in retrospect it's tough to believe audiences would ever go see big blockbuster movies starring such a generically forgettable human being.
